gisabeer replied to ian1964's topic in Rangers Chat
im fed up waiting on edu turning into a player. hes never going to realize his potential. -
you saved me the bother mate!
-
we need to rid ourselves of the tax case. until we do we will always have a cloud hanging over ibrox. and whyte at least is upfront about our affairs.
-
you cant believe a word in the media where rangers are concerned. take everything you hear with a pinch of salt

The Rangers Rollercoaster - Do You Enjoy The Ride?
gisabeer replied to Frankie's topic in Rangers Chat
I have been "entertained by the likes of Davie Cooper, Michael Mols, Laudrup, Gascoigne to name a few and never felt one bit of naivety. should i have done? Quite an absurd comment to be honest. If the only thing that matters is the result then we may all as well stay at home and watch out for the final results on TV on sportscene. -
The Rangers Rollercoaster - Do You Enjoy The Ride?
gisabeer replied to Frankie's topic in Rangers Chat
The one thing that struck me over the last 3 seasons is that i didnt enjoy the football that i was witnessing. I found us to be bland boring and predictable, and for the most part pretty much unwatchable, winning trophies or not. Thats why i gave up my season book. I wasnt being entertained on matchdays and in the end the passion i had for Rangers wained. something i never thought would happen. Far too often in football the only thing that matters is the result with no care of how that result is achieved. To me that is wrong. The manner in which your team wins is a very important aspect of the game to me as it dictates just how good your team is. But this point of view seems to have got lost somewhere at Ibrox. I hope they find it real soon. -
I would assume that people generally like him. and he has been criticised. If you dont like him then dont read his articles.

dont see how anyone can say lafferty has made it. he had a decent spell in the run in to last season but other than that hes been mediocre. had he "made it" he would have sunk the chance he had the other night instead of skelping it straight at the keeper.

they train for a couple of hours in the morning go to lunch, then a product signing session then home at 1. won the murray park tour and had the distinct pleasure of waiting an hour and 15 mins to catch the players as they made there way home

He must have sat on a cactus before that interview!!! Hes fucked right off! Watch you dont lose your temper ginge!!!!

Why haven't we seen more of McMillan and Perry until now?
gisabeer replied to Zappa's topic in Rangers Chat
It was a really big game today and all the kids more than stood up to the task. Motherwell played some pretty football as well and made them earn their corn. There good form will put pressure on the regular picks and i reckon there will be fierce competition for places, which can only be good for the club. Edu, Whittaker and a few others had better watch their backs or they will be the ones with their arses on the bench on match day! -
we had the malmo game in the bag until whittaker blew us out of the water. his actions were unbelievable. that simple act of stupidity has cost us dear.

"Experience is the name everyone gives to their mistakes"
gisabeer replied to a topic in Rangers Chat
couldnt agree more. the general consensus was that mccoist should be given a year before we passed judgement and it still should be the case. i thought we'd struggle in the first quarter due to the fact that we were ill prepared at the start of the season. The lack of activity in the transfer market was a major factor in this and we certainly cant blame McCoist for that. He has been let down very badly by the board in that department. I will say though that Ally needs to be his own man. I see far too much of walter smith in his team selections and tactics but hopefully this will change now he has a few players of his own in. -
the service to him has been very poor. i think his form is a reflection of the overall teams performance so far.
-
all we need now is another striker.
-
the lad deserves a contract that matches the others his age. he has earned it with his performances so far. It is pretty crap that he was stripped of his personal training gear and made to train with the u19s. nothing short of bullying from the management.
-
the goal was offside but only just. 3 good penalty shouts in the first half though. Andy Walker on the 63rd minute accusing the Rangers management team of putting pressure on the match officials at half time!!!!!!!!
-
lovencrands is a non starter. on STV at 6 oclock
-
I would take wilson back in a minute and am surprised we havent been in asking after him.

Who mentioned putting money in shareholders pockets? not me. And the club is as much a commercial business as any high street store. Football at ibrox has taken second place to the finances for a very long time and it will continue to be about the money for the foreseable future. To the men on any board of any football club fans are no more than an avenue for revenue. Thats why you pay 45 quid for a football top that costs 3 quid to make. Its why you will pay 40 quid + for a ticket to an old firm game and why you barely get change out of a tenner when you buy a burger and a coke at the game. At the end of the day you buy a product (including the football on offer) just like you do when you walk into a shop and buy a pint of milk. Football isnt just a game anymore, its big business. It promotes and sells a product. And you are as much a customer as you are a fan. So there are indeed similarities between a high street shopper and a football fan. Feel free to continue to jump on the blind faith and loyalty bandwagon if you like, but i left that behind a few years back. I have come to see the game in general for what it is. The game i loved as a kid is gone. its been replaced by a commercial juggernaut where loyalty has no place.

blind faith. The one thing that kept our club afloat while we were up to our necks in debt. I was one of the blind faith guys who put my money over the turnstiles during that era. Through think and thin and all that stuff. But the role of a fan these days has changed. It used to be that supporting your club meant turning up on match days and cheering your team on. Now? We are customers and the club is as much a business as any store down your local high street. "blind faith" is no more than an opportunity for the club to fleece you out of as much money as they can under the pretense of you being part of the "Rangers Family". Ally indeed might fail as manager but it is far to early to speculate on that. he might win as well. we just dont know at this stage. what i do know is that he has been let down massively so far. by a board who promised so much and delivered very little. to say they have been slow of the mark is an understatement, something i have been critical of since the start of the season. So i suppose that puts me in the "told you so" brigade, which i may add offers me no comfort now we are out of the CL at qualifiers. The one thing i wont do this season is to sit idly by while things are blatantly wrong and say nothing. It is folly to do so. As for Mccoist? I will indeed judge him at the end of the season and give him my support and for the record i reckon he will last longer than that. But he will need a lot more support from the board than hes getting now if he is to do so. I will give the board some slack and put this down to being a learning curve for CW. He never became a successful business man by letting the grass grow under his feet, which is exactly what he has allowed to happen where our transfer market is concerned. It is time he started walking the walk. Talking the talk is wearing very thin these days.

Why would any fan want them to fall flat on their faces? A farcical comment.
